I do not know most of the people whose key I signed in the last 25 year.
For a long time I had the policy to sign keys only after having seen an
identity card in real life.  That policy was my own - others may have
different policies.  I have also noticed quite some signature on my key
From people I definitely never had met (even before the fun signature
think started).

Thus the conclusion that a key signature indicates that the owners of
those keys know each other is not correct.  Modulo some definition of
"know".


Shalom-Salam,
